Snow Joke

After a mild and frustratingly dry Winter we can't moan too
much about this months sub-zero temps and snow. The trick now will be to get on
the waters once warmer conditions return as the fish will be emerging from
Winter slumbers and some good catches will be on the cards.

Down at Riverside Road the ice and snow give a rare glimpse of the locations of
the numerous small springs that pre-date the fishery and fed the water-cress
beds that once occupied the site. The slighter warmer water from the springs
show as melt-holes on the surface. Remember that Riverside closes for coarse
fishing in February for the 10 week trout season. Last day is Tuesday 21st up to
9pm.

Dates for your diary

The 26th AGM will be held on April 18th. Our popular
Open Day at Riverside is currently planned for Saturday July
14th.

The full 2012-13 fixture list is still being completed. With so many
attending, (an average of 25 per match last year) we are having to look
for some larger venues. Full details on the VAC Match pages in due
course.
